Show Notes

Sam Clements is curating a fictional film festival. He'll accept almost anything, but the movie must not be longer than 90 minutes. This is the 90 Minutes Or Less Film Fest podcast.

In episode 159 Sam is joined by filmmaker Richard Linklater, director of Before Sunrise, Before Sunset, School of Rock, and Blue Moon. His new movie, Nouvelle Vague, follows the shooting of Godard's Breathless [À Bout De Souffle]. 

Richard has chosen Breathless [À Bout De Souffle] (90 mins). Directed by Jean-Luc Godard and released in 1960, the classic French New Wave drama stars Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jean Seberg. 

Sam and Richard discuss shooting his new film Nouvelle Vague on the same locations as Breathless, why the runtime of Breathless was revolutionary, and how Richard rarely makes films over two hours long.
